The location is perfect, the staff are fantastic and the food and entertainment are great. Unfortunately this visit had a couple of issues. Our room did not have any hot running water and it took a couple of days to be moved to a room that was in working order. Also, our visit clashed with the annual backgammon tournament held at the hotel. Again, unfortunately some of the people involved with the tournament did not really appreciate the ethos of the Jamaica Inn. On numerous occasions, staff had to tell people to turn their phones off of loudspeaker, at any time during the day or night, at breakfast, lunch or dinner, very annoying. Also a couple of these people were really quite rude.
We know next time to avoid the backgammon tournament!!
